First, college grades.
There are two kinds of master's degrees in Britain, one is research master's degree and the other is teaching master's degree. The requirements for applying for two masters are slightly different.
Apply for a research course:
1. education requirements: bachelor degree, with 1-2 years of relevant research work.
2. English language performance requirements: IELTS 6.5 or above or TOEFL 600 or above; Those who can't meet the language requirements need to apply for language courses first.
Research-oriented courses are usually one year before doctoral studies, so students who want to continue doctoral studies (or master's or doctoral studies) can consider applying and get a master's degree one year later.
Research or master's degree
Degree in philosophy. If the research progress is satisfactory to the school, you can apply for continuing doctoral research. China students with a three-year master's degree can directly apply for doctoral research courses in the UK. Doctoral research generally takes three years or more.
Apply for teaching courses:
1. Education requirements: Bachelor degree with an average score of 75 or above; Undergraduate students who are still studying need to provide relevant materials to prove that they can graduate smoothly and get a degree; Three-year college graduates need at least two years of work experience.
2. English language performance requirements: IELTS 6.5 or above or TOEFL 600 or above; Those who can't meet the language requirements need to apply for language courses first.
Second, language achievement.
1, TOEFL or IELTS
Is it TOEFL or IELTS to study in the UK? I believe many students have had such confusion. At present, almost all universities, including Oxford and Cambridge, recognize IELTS and TOEFL scores, but compared with IELTS, TOEFL is more difficult to get high scores, especially the listening part of the new TOEFL, which is more difficult than IELTS.
At the same time, IELTS scores have always been recognized by Britain and Australia, and TOEFL has only been generally accepted by Commonwealth countries in recent years, so it is more appropriate to study in the UK to take IELTS. Of course, you can also try to do IELTS and TOEFL simulation questions at the same time to see which one is more suitable for you. For example, the IELTS requirement of Cambridge University and Oxford University is 7.5, while the TOEFL requirement is107; Other schools require IELTS score of 7, which roughly corresponds to TOEFL 100.
2. GRE or GMAT
GRE and GMAT are the two main forces in North America's postgraduate entrance examination, but if we go to study in Britain, these two mountains seem to pose no threat to us. First of all, you don't need GRE scores to study in the UK. So do you need GMAT scores to study in the UK? The answer is specific analysis.
Compared with all business graduate applicants in the United States who need to provide GMAT scores, only a few top business schools in Britain need to provide GMAT scores. Such as: London, Imperial College London, Cass, City University of London, etc. Therefore, we must not be intimidated by language achievements.
Third, the cost of studying abroad.
1, meal fee for studying in the UK
Some students can choose to cook by themselves if they can't adapt to the western catering style, which not only saves money, but also is a good social means and can fully exercise their independent ability. English students often make friends at dinner. If you cook China's excellent dishes at this time, it will be very popular at dating parties.
2. Rent for studying in the UK
The rent is generally 500-700 yuan per week, and the electricity fee is calculated separately. Then the rent, water and electricity in the annual accommodation fee is generally around 30,000-40,000 RMB. It is particularly important to note that students should learn to cook by themselves before going to Britain. Because Britain is different from other European countries, there are almost no centralized large-scale student canteens on the campuses of British universities, only simple cafes and Sacido scattered in every building on campus.
3. Transportation expenses for studying in the UK
In terms of British tourism, the most economical and convenient way is to buy some annual tickets, such as those of Arriva or railcard. In addition, there are some necessary expenses, such as buying necessities, some clothes out of season, getting sick and seeking medical treatment, etc. Generally speaking, the cost of living for studying in Britain will vary greatly due to regional differences.
